Approximately 50% of Venezuela’s area is
mountainous; the Andes Mountains are the most
important. Venezuela has around 1000 rivers; among
those rivers, the Orinoco River is very important.

- Venezuelan food is delectable. Pabellón Criollo and Yo-yo

are popular dishes. Pabellón Criollo has shredded beef, rice,
black beans and plantain slices and Yo-yo has two fried
